Configuring Evolution for Exchange
I'm not very good at Exchange, but I try to explain my view.
I got Ultra60 with Solaris 10 and JDS 3.
I got DELL Precision 620 WS with Solaris 10 x86 JDS 3
I got DELL Precision 620 WS with SUSE SLES 9 JDS 3
All got the same problem
We have an IIS server that connects to exchange server.
Outlook connects directly to exchange server.
http:/webmail connects to Exchange thrue IIS server. (webmail)
Our exchange guys tell me I could connect either way.
If I set up evolution to connect thrue IIS it works but lack features (I'm not shure wich).
If I set up evolution to connect directly to exchange server, it can't connect.
Error: Can't connect to server got645.got.net, Try SSL.
I do get the password prompt.
Settings:
Echange server: got645.got.net
Windows Username: roland
Global Catalog server name: gotn030.got.net
In TAB Receiving mail, Is the authentication not for Exchange? (manual says just IMAP.
In TAB Receiving options, I dont set anything in Exchange server as it is for WEB connection. (I think)
Is it possible to connect directly or is the IIS the only way?
A snoop tells me:
got645.got.net -> sp608HTTP R port=34410
got645.got.net -> sp608HTTP R port=34410
sp608 -> got645.got.net HTTP GET /exchange/roland/ HTTP/1.1
got645.got.net -> sp608HTTP HTTP/1.1 403 Forbidden
got645.got.net -> sp608HTTP le in IIS Manager (inetmgr),
This tells me it tries to go thrue IIS anyway!
